Since this book was described as "updated" I ordered it. There is no question that Zimmerman was a true genius. She created what at first glance I could have sworn, was impossible. It helps a great deal that the editors have translated her writing into row by row knitting instructions. A couple of things worked just fine but then I came across "Rorschach" cardigan. I could not find any row by row instructions and the original writing is not yet yielding to my grasp. An online search said that the row by row instructions are on pages 151-152 in the "Knitting Workshop". Amazon shows two identical cover books by exactly the same name. The one I bought is around 22 dollars and has a co-author but has 134 pages and of course, no instructions alluded to on the website. The other one costs more than 70 dollars. Does not show the number of pages but also says is an updated version. Whatever the whole mess is, may be legal but certainly extremely confusing to the consumer. IF THE CHEAPER PAPERBACK IS CUTTING OFF PART OF THE INSTRUCTIONS, THEN IT SHOULD SAY SO CLEARLY. I FEEL CHEATED. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Not exactly what I was expecting. *by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017* I got this book with the idea of learning more about knitting, to expand my skills. I'm not exactly sure how much this particular book will help with that. I imagine this may sound like blasphemy to the devoted/enthusiastic fans of Elizabeth Zimmermann...I think it's going to be good reading, don't get me wrong! I like what she covers in the book. But I'm not sure how much I'll be helped with some skills (color knitting, for example). I personally just found it a little unclear. I will say that I understand her being well liked, because she writes with a sense of humor.I am also sorry it wasn't updated to include color photos, as someone else mentioned in a review. Finally, I wouldn't recommend this to someone looking for an absolutely beginner book. She definitely assumes some knitting experience. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Premier Knitting Book *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2014* I had never heard of Elizabeth Zimmermann and I have been knitting for 50 years! But, after reading the previous reviews I ordered the book. I was anxious to get the directions for the Babies' Garter-Stitch Surprise Jacket after seeing it on Pintrest. And the reviews made me realize she just might have something to teach me. And boy she did! And with humor that made me laugh out loud: "...back-and-forth knitting can quite easily be worked back-and-forth on a circular needle. Just practice and see - and no needle will ever have a chance to slide away into the upholstery, or under the car-seat, or, worse, INTO THE DRINK." The book has pen and ink drawing and some black and white photographs so it is a bit old-fashioned. But the writing is clear and simple. Sometimes you just have to try it and see how it goes. She uses a simple math formula [and I am terrible at math] to figure out the number of stitches required for arms, body size etc. and now I realize I can look at a picture of a sweater I like, take out my trusty "Knitting Workshop" and recreate the sweater following her directions. Soon, I hope it will become second nature to me, which I think is what she was trying to teach us all along. She certainly takes the fear out of knitting--who needs a pattern? Not me any longer! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4292338-elizabeth-zimmermanns-knitting-workshop-hardcover-december-1-1981](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4292338-elizabeth-zimmermanns-knitting-workshop-hardcover-december-1-1981) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
